Thanks for the consideration Liam. So far Oversteer has been working well for me; I tried pyLinuxWheel, but I keep getting errors that I need to run as root, which I run it as but I still get nothing.

Hey Liam I know you wrote an article a couple of years ago about your experience with the g29 racing wheel under Linux, but maybe you can do an update to that article since more games and more applications to configure the wheel have popped up. Oh and also your experiences with using it with Proton would be nice too :)

Does anyone know if this game plays better native or using Proton?

So I guess we'll finally have steam controller + Android working. I'm assuming you'll need the upcoming Android steam app for it to work on Android though :/

I wonder if the dongle is required to connect the steam controller via Bluetooth to your Android device. If I recall correctly the steam link doesn't need the dongle

Haha it actually looks pretty cool like a cross between Super Mario Bro 64 and the Candy Kingdom from Adventure Time :)

Need more details about the hardware, but if it has anything like a 2200g/2400g it'll be a steal for around 250-300 since you should be able to wipe it and install your choice of distro.

Thanks for the heads up; I've had this game on my wish list for quite some time and now I got it for free :)
